Firmware Software Engineer

Saxon Global, Redmond, Washington, United States, 98052


Summary: The main function of a firmware software engineer is to apply the principles of computer science and mathematical analysis to the design, development, testing, and evaluation of the embedded software and systems that client devices work.

Job Responsibilities:Analyze, design, develop, and debug firmwareDevelop, prepare, and support embedded SW for demosUnderstand and implement power-management, boot loaders, scheduling, and RTOSCollaborate in a team environment across multiple , product focused, research, and engineering disciplines

Skills:

Experience with software design and programming in C/C++ for development, debugging, testing and performance analysisExperience producing production quality, fail-safe firmware for low-power real-time system controlExperience working with real-time operations systems such as Zephyr or FreeRTOS.Experience with embedded processors like ARM Cortex M0/M3/M4 architecture and boot mechanism, interrupt priorities and experience with configuring peripheralsExperience with peripherals such as USB, SPI, MIPI CSI/DSI, I2C, UART, GPIO etc.Experience analyzing hardware and power consumptionExperience with hardware, clock-level issues, bridges, delays, interrupts, clock gating, polling etc.Experience with instrumentation like oscilloscopes, logic/protocol analyzers for debugging embedded systems at HW levelExperience with device documentation and translating that information into software solutionsExperience with methods of designing experiments to diagnose embedded hardware and firmware problemsExperience with cross multi-disciplinary boundaries to drive system solutions

Education/Experience:

B.S. degree in Computer Science or Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience

Note:Top 3 must-have HARD skills:
